### 󠀁[Great Plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-plugin-41024/)󠁿

 [jefferies1](https://profiles.wordpress.org/jefferies1/) 7. nowembra 2025

This plugin works great! I successfully migrated two different WooCommerce sites
without any issues. I did have a little trouble at first understanding what to copy,
since the labels didn’t match exactly, and I’m not very experienced with site migration.
Fortunately, there are plenty of tutorials online that answered all my questions,
so I didn’t need to contact support.

### 󠀁[Works well for standard WordPress installations](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/works-well-for-standard-wordpress-installations/)󠁿

 [casper](https://profiles.wordpress.org/caspervoogt/) 19. awgusta 2025

I have used this plugin dozens of times, successfully. I usually migrate standard
WordPress sites, meaning no Bedrock or other funny business. I also once migrated
a very large multisite successfully with it (~24 sites in one multisite) … that 
worked great. Today I tried migrating a WP site built using Bedrock, and that did
not work, because the site abstracts WP admin code into a /wp/ subfolder and also
changes where uploads are stored, and this plugin can’t deal with that. That’s unfortunate,
but not the end of the world.

### 󠀁[Almost perfect plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/almost-perfect-plugin-10/)󠁿

 [Mickpunt](https://profiles.wordpress.org/mickpunt/) 25. nowembra 2024

This migrator plugin does what it’s supposed to do and fairly quickly as well.I 
used it to migrate websites from TransIP to Cloudways.There are a couple of details
to be mindful of though:- Add the domain via Domain Management (and make it the 
primary)- In the migrated wordpress site – search and replace the temporary domain
to the real domain using WP-CLI- After migration the Migrator plugin has a built-
in preference for the Breeze cache plugin (maintained by CloudWays). The Migrator
plugin apparently deactivates other caching plugings like WP-Rocket without explicitely
letting you know. This kinda freaked me out as I wasn’t sure the clone was a 100%
accurate.- Remember to clear the cache- Remember to restart Redis service- Remember
to purge Varnish service

My main issue is that it tends to be incredibly slow

### 󠀁[Multisite Migrated](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multisite-migrated/)󠁿

 [Jorge](https://profiles.wordpress.org/ventolinmx/) 15. junija 2024

I could migrate a WP Multisite with this plugin. Database, files and most configurations
went on perfectly but at the end you may have to do some hacking on files like wp-
config.php to fix URL direction problems. The whole Multisite was 9GB and it took
a couple of hours so don’t despair. As long as the progress bars move eventually
the process finishes. Of course this was my experience and I’ve only tested it once.
